Bad match up for cowboy. It’ll take a grappler to beat Khabib.
Cowbum would have gotten a beating worse than Barboza and MJ lol
This was when Cowboy was tearing through the LW division with 7 straight wins. People shit on Cowboy alot for not being an elite fighter, but i always thought he matched up well with Khabib.
You know shit.That mighty Cerrone who talk shit about also beat Eddie Alverez and Ben Hendrerson, both championship level fighters. The problem is you clowns criticize Cerrone for choking in fights, but yet don't give credit when he performs in them. Fact of the matter is Cerrone vs top competition would lose some and win some, so he was very capable of beating Khabib. And in 2015 is when Donald was at his very best and had a crazy win streak beating several top fighters.
Donald's won plenty of wars. Lawler came at him like a bat out of hell and Donald showed grit. Ended up losing the close decision.Khabib's mental strength, Iron chin and sheer will to win V Donalds performance dysfunction when facing anything vaguely resembling pressure.
Khabib would fold Donald like a paper swan.
You know shit.
Go ask cowbum and he would tell you himself he would've never fought Khabib
he was tearing through the LW division ???

Yes yes! You know everything. Now run along little boy and take your vast knowledge and share it with world.
This is exactly what I was thinking. Khabib isn’t a big shit talker and the time this fight would have taken place I’m not sure if Cowboy would have felt the pressure that he has in big opportunity fights. Plus I don’t feel Khabib was a great striker at the time. I’m not saying he would have won but the timing of the fight probably was his best opportunity to win.Cowboy would have been at his best. Not because he was in his prime or anything like that. Khabib wasn't the big star he is now and Cowboy wouldn't have choked. That said, I don't see him beating Khabib, even then. However, he would have had a shot and been at his best.

That Khabib was a rusty Khabib coming off a 2 year layoff lolI have atually just checked out 2016 Khabib v Horchner, a part time fighter. After that I watched Cowboy. I was curious how they looked in retrospect and THAT Khabib is beatable by THAT Cowboy. I think you guys don't realise how much better the Eagle became and how legit Cerrone was. To be fair, Cowboy would be the underdog, but he would have had more of a chance than Gaethje , Conor or Poirier.
Holloway would lose just the same. His takedown defense is child's play for Khabib. He has no chance whatsoever.No cerrone would have got GnP'd. His tdd is not nearly there to stand a chance. max Holloway on the other hand...
